Profile:
Hiralal Gaekwad was a left armer who could bowl either slow or
medium pace. He was a short term replacement for Vinoo Mankad in
the Test against Pakistan at Lucknow. The batsmen took a long time
in getting their runs and Gaekwad was given as many as 37 overs.
He conceded only 47 runs but finished wicketless. Earlier he had
toured England in 1952 without playing in any of the Tests. A
useful tail end batsman, he was one of the mainstays of the
great Holkar team of the forties and fifties and at the end of
a first class career that stretched for more than two decades,
he had picked up 374 wickets (23.60) and scored 2484 runs (19.40).
